The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 357 Prized Piece

"Have you been hanging out with your grandpa these past few days?" Emily asked.

Emily and Alice had met through Michael. Given the awkwardness between Emily and Michael now, things got a bit weird whenever Emily and Alice met.

"Yeah, have you been swamped with work lately?"

Emily nodded at Alice's question, and the tension between them grew thicker.

Suddenly, Emily remembered something Bryan had mentioned a few days ago when he asked for her help. "You and Bryan haven't seen each other in a while, right?"

The banquet hall was brightly lit, and with it being daytime, the jewelry on display sparkled brilliantly. In contrast, Alice looked rather worn out.

Emily could tell that Alice had changed a lot since they last met, and she suspected it had something to do with Bryan.

Hearing Bryan's name, Alice froze. She missed Bryan a lot, but with Leo back, she had to cut off contact with Bryan.

How could she not miss him after all these days?

Today was Bryan's mother's jewelry exhibition, but Alice hadn't expected to run into Bryan here. He usually avoided such events.

Besides, Bryan didn't know she would be here.

Thinking about this made Alice feel a bit sad. Maybe this was one of the reasons she envied Emily and disliked her own status as the eldest daughter of the Ward family.

Everyone envied her, but no one knew she didn't enjoy this life.

"Yeah, it's been a while."

Alice's moment of sadness was interrupted by Leo standing nearby. She took a deep breath, trying to hide her emotions, and looked back at Emily.

"Miss Brown, I..."

Before Alice could finish, her expression changed, and she fell silent.

Emily followed her gaze.

It was Bryan.
